Octo Character - Introduction

We're kicking the week off with a great new ZBrush tutorial from Shaun Keenan. This tutorial will show you how to create a toon style Squid character from scratch in ZBrush. You'll learn how to quickly block out the character's base mesh using the awesomeness that is ZSpheres, and further refine and detail the character using various brushes and alphas. Finally you'll paint everything up and make it look sexy with ZBrush's polypainting tools!
